Description

Provides a one-sample hypothesis test. The test assumes that the underlying population is normal and furthermore that $\sigma$ is known.

Usage

one.sample.z(data = NULL, null.mu, xbar = NULL, sigma, n = NULL, 
test = c("two.sided", "lower.tail", "upper.tail"))

Arguments

data
A vector of quantitative data. Not required if xbar and n are supplied by the user.
null.mu
The expectation for the null distribution.
xbar
Sample mean. Not required if is.null(data)==FALSE
sigma
The null distribution variance
n
The sample size. Not required if is.null(data)==FALSE
test
Type of test. One of three must be specified "two.sided", "lower.tail", or "upper.tail"

Value

  • Returns a p-value.

Details

The function can use either raw data is.null(data)==FALSE or summarized data if is.null(data)==TRUE. With the later xbar and n must be specified by the user.
